im just gunna get to the point just put it in to 3rd gear engine temp fine oil temp/psi great everything sweet as a nut then all of a sudden a horrible noise from the enigne, i thought it was the gearbox as it happen as selected 3rd, she lost power and cut out it wont start but wants to. the RAC guy checked the spark plugs going in to the head its self a low spark of them but a good spark from the distributer cap. he opened up the oil cap and ask me to try and start it and he could see the cams moving so he took the diss cap off that was all gud but wen i tried it again the roter arm was not spining neither was the drive rail that it sits on what shall i do and has this ever happened to any one else?>?>?>

if the rotor arm isnt spinning, or the end of the cam it slots into......id hazard a guess at cambelt failure mate.....unless its got kent cams in then they could have failed.

if cams are turning then cant be the belt, take the distributor out and see if shaft has snapped
